Real Life Hoosiers

If you’ve seen the classic hoops movie starring Gene Hackman,
Hoosiers, you have to love that a mid-major powerhouse like Butler
finally gets to the big stage and it’s 6 miles away from their
campus.

So what chance do the Bulldogs have to win the whole enchilada?
Well, what chance did they have coming in as a #5 seed to make it
this far? Ironically, they play the other #5 seed survivor in the
field, Michigan State. It’s better than playing either Duke or West
Virginia in the semis. I think they have a great shot against the
Spartans to find themselves in the finals on Monday. Tom Izzo is a
terrific coach, but I’m giving the edge to the hometown boys to
find themselves playing Duke in the finals. From there…do you
believe in miracles?

Coach Brad Stevens will probably be the hottest commodity in
college coaching. I just hope he doesn’t end up in Eugene.
